Thank you both for your help!

The 12th Royal Lancers reference sounds correct....that is on the address to him (postcard).  I am not sure how to get the army record for him.  I did look on ancestry.com with no luck. 
Obviously, Im new to this and fumbling about with this whole journey.

That information was on a census report?  Why do I not see so much information when looking at census entries? 

Thanks!

Well, according to his death certificate age and his marriage certificate age, he should have been born
in 1884.  According to Ireland's Memorial Records, he was born in Dublin.  According to the death certificate the place of birth is England (mistake?).  I think it is probably Ireland and not England per passed down family information.

I have an old postcard that was on the remains of an ancestor Patrick James O'Brien (Royal Lancers while in India). The postcard is from "Mother" with the return address of 39 Coombe Street Dublin.  The date is February 24, 1909. On the front of the card is United by our love for Erin. 
I am trying to find her name!  I believe Patrick James O'Brien's father's name is James O'Brien per a marriage certificate in England (Father is listed as deceased). 
Any advise or information??
Thank you!
L. O'Brien
